NEXT COUNCIL MEETING: MAY 14 AT 7 PM, LAKESIDE LODGE

PLEASE PLAN TO ATTEND

The CarillonFATHER EMIL J. KAPAUN COUNCIL 10022 May 2015

CHARITY-UNITY-FRATERNITY-PATRIOTISM

Grand Knight’s Message:

STAND UP AND BE COUNTED MAY IS BUSTING out all over. The buds and the flowers announce that Spring is here, and our council has many things on our docket. I want to wish a Happy Mother's Day to all the ladies who have worked so hard to raise their children; kudos to you.

WE BEGIN the month with the P. I. D. drive to benefit God's special children. Dan Spina will have volunteers collecting for these special people at the Lucky 7 on Route 37, at the Lucky 7 in Lakehurst and at the Lakehurst Diner on the first weekend, namely the 2nd and the 3rd. On Mother's Day, May 10, we will say the Rosary prior to the 9:15 mass. The prayers begin at 8:45, so please planto join us in the front of St John's church. We will hand out roses to the mothers after mass.

AT THE END OF MAY, we will have our Patriot's Day Dance with the Jersey Jukebox on Saturday, May 30. This is a fantastic Doo Wop group that has played to a full audience last year. Be sure to get your tickets from Mike Petrillo; see the notice inside the Carillon.

YOU DON'T HAVE TO BE A HERO! May is also when we think of electing new officers for our council. Elections are slated for our June meeting, and we have some important vacancies to fill. As most of you know, Jim Ashman is retiring as our Financial Secretary. This is an important position, and we cannot operate as a council without a FS. I am willing to step down as the GK (I

have been here longer than I expected) and become your new FS. However, that leaves an Important vacancy.

WE HAVE TO have someone step up to fill the Grand Knight position. You don't need to be a hero to be the Grand Knight. It requires dedication, but there are many experienced officers willing to help out. We cannot operate as a council without a FS and a GK. If we cannot fill those two positions we are in danger of becoming an inactive council. If that were to happen, it would be a sad situation.

WE ARE A VIBRANT council that donates to many groups and organizations that provide charitable assistance to the citizens of Leisure Knoll and Manchester Township. What a shame it wold be to have that go away.

THE PRINCIPLES of the Knights of Columbus are Charity, Unity, Fraternity and Patriotism. Our council has demonstrated our commitment to charity and to patriotism. We are a patriotic group that gives willingly. However, unity and fraternity are equally important. We need to gather together as a unit to continue our great work.

LET’S KEEP TOGETHER our brotherhood by stepping forward to accept a leadership positionso we can carry on as we have for the past 26 years.

Vivat Jesus SK John Bilotta, Grand Knight

How Well

Do We Know Our Faith? In February, The Carillon began a series on the various aspects of our Faith.This month, we focus on the seven sacraments.

Sacraments of Initiation

Baptism – The first sacrament – sometimes called “The door of the Church” – cleanses us of Original Sin. In Baptism we receive new life in Christ and a new birth in the Holy Spirit. The sacrament is administered by a priest or deacon by pouring water over the forehead, proclaiming “I baptize you in the name of the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit.

Confirmation – Like Baptism, this is received only once. With the “laying of hands” the candidatereceives the Holy Spirit normally from a bishop or his auxiliary but also by a priest who has been designated by the bishop to represent him. The recipient is anointed with holy oil, or Chrism.

Holy Eucharist – Celebrated at Mass when bread and wine , through the mystery of Transubstantion, become the body, blood, soul and divinity of Jesus. Holy Communion may be received as often as once a day. Normally, in the West, First Holy Communion is received by children who have reached the age of reason – around age seven

Sacraments of Healing

Rebonciliation or Penance – Jesus gave his apostles, and through them our priests, the power to forgive sins. There are three steps to the sacrament: -- the individuals sorrow for the sins, confessionto a priest and absolution from the priest followed by a penance in the form of prayer .

Anointing of the Sick – Called Extreme Unction prior to Vatican II, this sacrament is given to seriously ill Catholics so that its special graces might unite the sick person to the passion of Jesus.

Sacraments at the Service of Communion

Marriage -- The only sacrament where the ministers are not a priest or a deacon but a man and a woman. It unites two people in love with a lifelong commitment to be husband and wife.

Holy Orders -- The priesthood which Jesus bestowed on His apostles. There are three levels -- the diaconate, the priesthood and the episcopate.

CALLING ALL KNIGHTS

TO SEEK COUNCIL 10022 OFFICE

Father Kapaun is looking for a few good men to run for office in June.

Will you be one of them? We sure hope so.

We have a strong, active council that needs new blood and new ideas to keep our charities and or principles moving forward.

SK John Bilotta has announced that after many years at the helm he will be stepping down as grand knight. He will be missed. We mourn the passing of our great SK Carl Duerr who served with distinction as Trustee -- and in other offices, as well. There are also other posts to consider.

Why not give it a try? You have ideas? Here is your opportunity to bring them forward. So – please – seriously consider running. Call PGK Dan Spina at 732- 323-3031 or PGK Les Olcsvary at 732-323-0596. Today.
